Updates, opinions, customer stories, and random musings from the FeedMagnet team.
By now you have probably been to a trade show or event where they were putting tweets from attendees up on a screen. While it is pretty cool to see live buzz right up on the screens, pulling in just Twitter doesn't really capture the full conversation going on.
Just adding Facebook as a source would be a huge improvement. FeedMagnet lets you not only pull in more sources, but have complete control over the content and the look and feel.

We came out of the agency world. Prior to starting FeedMagnet, each of us spent most of our careers doing marketing and web work for clients at various agencies. Much of the inspiration to build FeedMagnet came from the frustration of not having the right tools available to implement our ideas from within agencies. We have a special place in our hearts for agencies and love partnering with them.
One of our first agency partnerships has been with Attention!, based in Manhattan. Attention is a social media marketing and communications agency, and their strategic approach to word-of-mouth marketing is a perfect fit for FeedMagnet. In addition to working on several client projects with Attention, we recently launched an experimental site together that aggregates brand content from Facebook. As a bonus, there's a walrus involved.
